A few years back (late 1990s) I was in the area and called in to try and buy a Junghans Mega 1 which had already been discontinued by then. They had a few left on the shelves but did not want to sell one watch to a casual caller but my friend, who was a native, and lived close by managed to persuade them.
However this took a while and meant I was very late for my flight home - we rang the airline to let them know I was on the way and they held the plane.
The joys of watch collecting.
